"Indeed, the rightwing critique of empathy is not an attempt to find a better way to achieve altruistic ends; it’s an excuse to turn away from altruism entirely. We are witnessing the construction of the ideological architecture to excuse violence and suffering on a mass scale."

If #SusanCollins, #RandPaul and #LisaMurkowski would just leave the R's and become independent, some of these appointments could be stopped. If just a few Congresspeople would grow a spine, we could stop these tariffs. Wisconsin showed that #Elon's money can't buy every election.

I have friends who are not bring cell phones to rallies this weekend. My response was that if they come for me (white, relatively wealthy, suburban woman with a “professional” career) than we have already lost. Get out in the streets on Saturday - before you are scared to be in the streets.

Donald Trump would rather stop funding medical research, medical & food aid, education, food assistance, school lunch, Social Security than make the rich pay taxes. And that’s all you need to know about the convicted felon, charity thief, insurrectionist, fraudster. www.euronews.com/my-europe/20...

I am stunned by @maddow.msnbc.com 's report tonight on the abrupt cancellation of vaccination programs abroad and at home. Our country is not only less safe in terms of national security, but also less safe from infectious diseases as a result. Why? cruelty or willful ignorance? So sad.

a day in the life of a privileged white lady doing my little bit of resistance: volunteered in a Title 1 school reading with first graders who are struggling; zumba class; cooked a healthy meal for a friend with stage 4 cancer; joined 50 or so to demonstrate in front of our local Tesla dealership.

While the Russian Useful Idiot in the White House is busy claiming bullshit wartime authority to further his efforts destructing Democracy, just a reminder that everything he has said is a lie & everything that he says going forward will be a lie. As for his enablers, screw them.

@maddow.msnbc.com Have you considered adding a segment on protest MUSIC in addition to the town halls and demonstrations? If so, please consider @emmasrevolution.bsky.social who have been awesome at writing and performing music for the resistance.

@maddow.msnbc.com Mike Levin is a democrat and has consistently held town hall meetings with no police registration required. Please correct your error calling him a Republican.
